shabby treatment which the militia
received at the hands of the Missouri
legislature, has brought her into I'M
comfortable notoriety, and the eastern
press, rs . rule, have commented on
it in q way that is calculated to make
the matter standing disgrace. The
New York Sun says:
Missouri is making q very ques-
tionsble experiment in undertaking to
do without an organized, uniformed
and trained militia. Nor can any
state fairly expect its militia to be
ready at the governors call to pre-
serve order and guard property, often
at the peril of their own lives, and
yet actually pay for the privilege of
getting themselves ready and equip
ped for this duty. The Importance of
the militia is unquestionable. The
maintenance of even small forces, if
well chosen, well equipped and we'll
disciplined. not only affords guaran-
tee Of the preservation of peace and
order, but removes the neces-
sity of increasing the standing army.
At the present time the dispute be.
tween the militia forces of State and
its Legislature, based on allegations of
parsimony and resulting in the dis.
bandment of the former, is particular
ly foolish on account of the new
national militia law. This law not
only doubles the former annual ap-
preparation made from the United
States Treasury for providing arms
for the militia, but appropristes it ac-
cerding to the percentage of the en-
listed, organized, and Uniformed
militia existing in each State.

Among those who discussed the
proposed organic union between the
northern and southern Presbyterians
at the general assembly in St. Louis,
was Rev. c. K. Vaughan, of Lexing-
ton, Va, who said among other
brilliant and weighty % things that
he was opposed to allowing such a
wide latitude. to women as in the
northern churches" This seems par
ticularly hard on the women. when it
Is remembered that about half the
churches would fall into disuse
if it were not for their
help and it is quite possible that
numerous preachers, Rev. Vaughn
among them, would soon find, their
occupation entirely gone. Say what
We may, it is truth which can not
be denied, that not one man in ten,
without prodding from the women,
would give generously, toward church
support and not one man in ten would
work and strive and sacrifice as do
women to make the church a success.
Is it possible that after wrestling with
the problem Of the church festival
ever since churches were established,
that women are to be kept in the back
ground by an old fogy minister Of
Virginia? Not much indeed, and if
this is his chief reason for Directing to
An organic union of the two churches,
he should never be allowed to even
smell, let alone taste Of yellow-leg-
ged chicken again during bis natural

from this immediate discovery and hot
pursuit that the Indians were frightened
and left the band hastily without accom-

this, yet white mans horse has no value
